Case Study: Thuringia Foundation for Nature Conservation brings the Green Belt to life with rooom

Digitization for Thuringian nature conservation along the former inner-German border

The Thuringia Foundation for Nature Conservation sought to make its permanent exhibition about the Green Belt, a former inner-German border turned nature reserve, more accessible and engaging, particularly for younger audiences. They partnered with rooom to enrich the analogue exhibition with digital elements and create an interactive experience that could be accessed both on-site and remotely.

rooom developed a free interactive multi-app featuring 3D and AR models of historical watchtowers and border strips, a virtual tour of the exhibition, and AR-activated storytelling from photos. This solution from rooom made the history and nature of the Green Belt more tangible and appealing, successfully broadening the exhibition's audience by providing barrier-free access and engaging a younger generation.
